I started this blog to document my first custom motorbike build from start to finish, i'm self taught and have done as much work as i can myself. The build has taken alot longer than i expected but ive learnt alot and enjoyed every moment.

It Rolls!!!
Hey,
The bike builds been moving along nicely, on saturday me Micky and Chriso took my frame to a mates place to be 2 pac'd. I had the gloss black paint on but decided 2 pac it to add extra shine and durability from stones and knicks. Gotta give a big shout out to Rowan for laying down the clear coat, thanks for your time and effort dude.
So today came and finally there was nothing holding me back from starting the final assembly of the bike, i didnt want to rush so i set a goal of mounting the motor, front forks, handle bars and wheels + sidestand. This way i can easily move the bike around while im adding all the other parts.
I got it all done and heres the result, i'm loving the way this bike sits, so low and long and in these pics you can really get a glimpse of what it will look like when its finished. Oh i was also thinking of sliding the forks up the triple tree one inch to lower the front a little more but i will wait and see.
